Importing and Exporting Users or Groups

In addition to setting up user/group mapping, you can export a list of

Windows and UNIX users/groups, which might help you map users/groups.

Also, you can import or export a user/group map file. Importing a user/

group map lets an unlimited number of mappings occur simultaneously.

Exporting a user/group map lets you save the map for later use or for

disaster recovery.
Follow the directions below to:

■

Import/export a user or group map file

■

Export a list of Windows and UNIX users or groups

Note

Group mapping is similar to user mapping where you associate

or “map” a group using SMB/CIFS file protocol to a group

using the NFS file protocol.

In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Configuration tab.

Navigate down the tree to Mapping, then select User Mapping or Group

Mapping.

Select Actions > then one of the following options:

—

Import User Map or Import Group Map. A window appears. Find the

location for the user map you've created. Click Open to import the file

to the NAS server. All entries will be merged; that is, new entries will

be added, and old entries will be remapped.

—

Export User Map or Export Group Map. Specify the location and file

name, then click Save.

—

Export User List or Export Group List. Specify the location and file

name of the export list, then click Save.
